There is going to be a test on this musical ode to the historical event.
OK not really. No test, you’re off the hook. But Pennsylvania horror punk/rock quintet The Deathtones do take the infamous “Black Death” plague of the 6th century as their muse for this terrible track, and it gets pretty metal, too. Symphonic, even.
Check out the single below, and swing by their Bandcamp to hear more, or stream over at Spotify.
